Anti-Aging & Longevity Research Peptides
Aging research splits into several distinct mechanistic threads, and this collection covers the ones with the deepest peptide literature: cellular senescence (FOXO4-DRI, a senolytic-class peptide studied for disrupting the FOXO4–p53 interaction), thymic involution and immune aging (thymalin, thymosin alpha-1), mitochondrial function and NAD+ salvage (NAD+, SS-31, MOTS-c), and extracellular-matrix remodeling (GHK-Cu, among the most-cited compounds in the entire collagen-synthesis literature).
These are separate hallmarks of aging rather than competing approaches, which is why longevity study designs frequently pair compounds across threads instead of choosing between them.

Frequently asked questions
+What does 'senolytic' mean in peptide research?
Senolytic describes a compound studied for its capacity to selectively clear senescent cells — cells that have stopped dividing but resist apoptosis and secrete inflammatory factors. FOXO4-DRI is the most-cited peptide in this class, studied for disrupting the FOXO4–p53 interaction that keeps senescent cells alive.
+Why is GHK-Cu so heavily cited?
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding tripeptide whose plasma concentration declines markedly with age. It has one of the largest bodies of published work of any peptide, spanning collagen synthesis, extracellular-matrix remodeling, antioxidant response, and gene-expression studies.
+How do thymalin and thymosin alpha-1 relate to aging research?
Both are thymic peptides, and thymic involution is a recognized hallmark of immune aging. They appear in immunosenescence models studying whether thymic signaling can be modulated in aged systems.
+Are these products for human use?
No. All compounds are supplied as reference standards for in-vitro laboratory research only — not for human or veterinary use.
